Leading Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s name was left off Florida primary ballots according to reports relayed by Fox News’ Jennifer Eckhart on Twitter who said the local Fox affiliate has received “dozens of complaints.”

Eckhart wrote the irregularities are in “Jupiter County” which does not exist. She probably meant the town of Jupiter or Palm Beach County where Jupiter is located. Palm Beach County is where Trump’s Florida base Mar-a-Lago is located.

...reince preibus is going to lose the entire republican party if he keeps this shit up. trump will run 3rd party and either win or hand the election to hillary. fuck you reince preibus for not having a backbone.

I'm willing to bet that because this is a closed primary, idiots who are registered independents and were given ballots for Independent candidates, you have to be a registered Republican or Dem to vote for one of the presidential candidates.

Kathleen Crum, 37, walked into the Jupiter Community Center and within minutes emerged with an “I Voted” sticker on her chest — a testament to the short lines at the polls.

“I’m here to avoid over-development,” said Crum, whose call to action unlike many others was sparked mainly by local issues. “I love this town and I want to see it stay the same. The local elections impact me more than the national.”

Before noon, maybe 100 people showed up at the community center to vote, estimated Jean Fleurimont, a poll worker.

“Of course you always expect more, or hope for it,” he said

Some were confused after apparent precinct changes affecting polling locations.

Ashley Anderson, 27, showed up just before 9 a.m. only to be told, along with a handful of others, that her location changed.

“It’s frustrating, but I’m going straight there. It won’t stop me from voting,” said Anderson, who said she needed to cast a vote for Sen. Bernie Sanders.

“I wish more people would take it seriously and vote, but none of the young people I know are coming out today,” she said.

There were no lines at the community center or the nearby polling stations at Jupiter High School between 8 and 9 a.m.

Just left my polling place and saw the forms. The independent ones just contained any local or county election options - nothing about the presidential portion.

No fuss just pointing out the Facts.
A "news" report Directly from JUPITER FL showing there were 0.0 problems
VS... some dimwits that don't know they must be registered R or D to vote in a "primary" for an R or D candidate.

I want to vote in the primary. Do I have to be a Democrat or Republican?

Since Florida is a closed primary state, only voters who are registered members of the respective political party's candidates can vote for those candidate nominees in a primary election. Typically that would be either one of the two major political parties (Republicans and Democrats) but it can also include minor political parties if they have candidates for an office on the primary election ballot. All registered voters can vote in a primary election, regardless of which major or minor political party they are registered or even if they are registered without a specific party affiliation when:

All the candidates for an office have the same party affiliation and the winner of the primary election will not face any opposition in the general election (i.e. no write-in candidates have qualified).

The race is nonpartisan (i.e., prohibited from qualifying or campaigning based upon party affiliation) (e.g., judicial and school board offices, nonpartisan special districts or local referendum questions).

At a general election, all registered voters receive the same ballot and may vote for any candidate or question on the ballot. If there are write-in candidates who have qualified for a particular office, a space will be left on the general election ballot where their name can be written.
